I've been vocal about lynching Houtarou since the beginning. So. Expect to see my vote on him.


Another player who pinged to my interests is Tigerr.


@Imperfection dude where are you? I don't like the last minute vote you gave to Kyte.
I was here earlier and just awoke from sleeping. :p

I also asked you this yesterday

@Alice in Noodleland

How come AL?
Although I don't disagree with you there. I feel like I've been having difficulty reading AL, probably because first game with them. But you seem pretty set on lynching them.
Part of me wants to follow along this phase. I do remember them unvoting during eod in dp1 which looked like not to take responsibility, and before that voted toujo who was the counter wagon to poison, who turned out to be scum.
Also, i dont know what to make of AL using themselves as bait apparently.

Yea I agree. Getting rid of Poison for some extra town cred specially when you keep in mind the abilities that Poison had is a silly move in the first phase itself. Toujo had options of RGK and Ryu who he had already mentioned as one of his scum reads so why kill you own overpowered teammate for town cred when there was a better alternative available.

Adding to this. Toujo has so far come off as a very cocky player. Now this is just me reaching here but a player with his experience and attitude I can imagine wanting to demolish the town team without even losing a single scum mate.
Its been the mentality of every good Scum player I have played with. They only wanted to lose a scum mate when the situation was becoming a bit messy for them to handle.
@-PK

Quoting this post because I feel like last day phase you and me were going in a very similar direction with our thinking, and wanted to ask if you still felt this way after Kytes flip?

First three posts in the game where he manages to call someone out, accuse Luk of being scum, and dodging a question.

475

His hand sure heals fast.

469
509

Two posts where he seems to buddy Ratchet.

603

Says he can't read Poison at all. Convenient.

880
908

Defensive of being linked with Poison.

1052

Another player (Michelle) where he admits he just can't read them.

1469

I think Hou saying that he wasn't going to be around EOD and then seeing how active he really was, makes this post a bit odd in retrospect.

1529

This is a really interesting post from Hou saying he's not going to vote Poison this phase after asking people what they thought about her lynch a few times. I know he flip flopped hard EOD, but to me, why constantly ask people what they think about Poison only to then come out and say you're not voting her this phase? Seems like he was maybe figuring out the best way to get town credit off her lynch.

1534

It's funny because, although I can't be certain it's the first mention of the idea but it's definitely one of the firsts, Hou brings up the idea that Kyte might be scum based on his read of Poison. At this point, no one knows Poison's alignment and her lynch wasn't red hot, so I don't really understand why Hou straight up called Kyte scum for his read. It's almost like Hou slipped here with TMI and was already trying to set up a mislynch here if Poison flipped scum.

1539

This is his second time offering up All_Red as a counter wagon despite only having eleven posts in the game. This was something I actually called out on the time because I just don't know how All_Red was an appropriate counter wagon to Poison given the circumstances. I think if Hou flips scum, All_Red might have been spewed town here.

1544

I actually don't even know what this gibberish is. Literally fifteen posts after he said he's never going to vote for Poison, he says he didn't mean it. What? He actually then uses RGK as a counter wagon for whatever reason. Not sure if RGK (Oshie) gets as much town equity as All_Red just because Hou offered up All_Red more than once. RGK might have just been a bluff, but felt less genuine than All_Red.

1568

LOL votes Poison after all this time. I know town can switch their minds, but there's no legitimate reason for a townie to spazz out like that at this point. I think what happened really was that Hou was torn between bussing and saving Poison and got caught in between what he really wanted to do and how to do it.

1602

Well, now he;s on Toujo. And this starts his push on the Toujo wagon.

1615

He drops that scum are probably on the Poison lynch. Nice.

1688

A reminder that this is how strongly Hou felt about Ratchet being scum at one point in this game.

1728

Here's a real juicy post. I like how he's already preparing his excuse for if Poison flips scum. TMI? Why try to set that up?

1764

For some reason Hou brings up that it's weird that Ratchet and I have town reads on each other. He also thinks I'm defending Ratchet which I was to a point, but more so I was convinced Poison was scum.

1891

Here's the post where he said he's fairly new at Mafia, yet he made a post recently how he's experienced enough to make town posts as scum. I just feel like he's been using his level of experience in different ways here.

2025

Now this is just a straight up lie that he thought Poison was a great lynch candidate, because if he had, he wouldn't have tunneled Ratchet like he did.

2041

Weird comment on Michelle's kill. "I assume scum has no motivation on that kill". Scum ALWAYS have motivation for a kill. It seems like Hou was trying to brush off any conversation on why Michelle was killed.

2054

Seems like pretty prepared day lynches, especially how he already shaded Kyte in D1 about potentially being scum for his Poison read. Despite everything Hou might say in D2, he never changed his vote off of Kyte.

2074

So this is Hou's third time saying that it HAS to be one scum between Kyte or Ansa but never gives reasons as to why. Is that a town thing to do?

2111

When Ansa asks what Hou's objective is, Hou says these are raw thoughts that aren't developed. But, it seems like he's pretty determined to go after the both of them despite having undeveloped reads.

2178

Here comes Hou creeping up on Kyte. Instead of calling him out for his read on Poison (like he did in D1) he just says that they had no interaction. Nice soft push.

2189

I actually don't think that the interactions between Ratchet and Poison are all THAT clearing to completely switch your death hunt of him.

2267

This post throws me off as well. Like, he's completely alright with a potential mislynch of Kyte and then says we have Ratchet next.

2305

This is like the second or third time he said 'watch out if I get serioues!'. Why?

2436

Personally, this is a pretty damning post by Hou for me. So I had given a POE and he called it gross (without any explanation, go figure) and when I asked him to clarify, he asked me why I found Ansa (as well as RGK/AL) suspicious. The bizarre thing is why are you calling my reads gross on RGK and Ansa when you voted RGK D1 near EOD and also opened D2 saying there had to be scum between Kyte and Ansa. My reads shouldn't be that far from the opinion you once had that you have to call my post out.

Throwing out Just_Red again. Poor Red. :no: I will say with the amount of times Hou suggested lynching Just_Red, he never gave a reason once.

2969

Funny, Hou had said that he was open to another wagon earlier in the game (obviously with the Just_Red sacrifice) but that there probably wasn't enough time to get a switch. Well, when the Ansa train picked up, even though he had doubts about the Kyte train (and to be fair he said he doubted Ansa as well), he weirdly doubles down and says he won't be moving his vote from Kyte. The reason seemed like bull shit as well.

3002

TMI?

3135

I just have a laugh out of irony here with Hou asking someone to clarify there reasons for doing when he's been doing it all game.

3246

So this is a noted Just_Red suggestion by Hou because he switches off of suspecting me, Ratchet, and Bee (as his reads) once Ansa suggested Red.

3349

Here's where Hou finally decides to come after me after we have our back and forth. Based on how he seemed to be looking for a place to hang his vote, I think this is in reaction of me coming after him. He still has yet to give me a case on why he thinks I'm scummy other than being a nuisance and how I've apparently acted after Kyte flipped.

3404

Says he doesn't go into detail unless he's really sure about something. Considering you suggested a Just_Red over ten times in this game, without a SINGLE reason as to why, when should I expect you to become serious about something?

3429

I wonder if @Houtarou; is going to ignore me now?
I just read this and must admit it has some.... really good points.
It felt like a lot of flip flopping going on.
Particularly what I find odd is that they said they wouldnt be around during EoD, wouldnt vote poison, but then voted for poison, and then went for Toujo after votes reset. Those kinda set me off. It gives me the vibe that a plan was changing, but very unnaturally. Like they weren't sure whether or not they could salvage poison or would be better off giving them up for town credit.

I'm going to read oreki's response.

@-PK- @Ansatsuken @Ryu Kishi @Rej

Let's vote for Hou. I think that my case against him is damning and I think he's floundered in this thread trying to respond to it. I think Osie really put the gears to him in my steed and I don't really feel much of a desire to respond to his defense because he just looks guilty in my eyes. I think his EOD1 play indicated he was stuck making the choice of attempting to save his teammate and bussing her, which resulted in him flip flopping his vote. D2 he gravitated towards Kyte because that was where the safe lynch was. And then in D3 he has been looking for a safe place to put his vote asking many different players who they are voting for and if they would vote for him. He's already suggested Ratchet, Red, Bee, and myself as all potential counter wagons to his own. This sounds more like self-preservation than scum hunting. His absence of a core list of suspects is very troubling.
I probably will, I just wanted to bring up discussion about beeboat

So who are you planning to vote this phase?
Unsure. While X feels to have some good points. I wouldn.t vote for you cause I didn.t make a personal iso on you.
@XTMF Maybe you find this post interesting also.

I am still considering Just_Red, Al and Aether. I would take Toujo in consideration also after Kyte.s flip of DP2 and but I haven.t isoed him yet.

I don’t have a perfect grasp of the full breadth of the Rej gameplay. But someone like Rej who almost was giving his reads to the most players whether one-liner or just direct read had actually very few interactions with Poison. I was just rereading the thread and noticed that neither Poison nor Rej really interacted with each other at all. Let's not forget these two are someone who loves to interact with just about anyone, especially Rej who was giving his reads left to right actually decide to ignore Poison after just one post interaction, not mentioning her name or anything and only thrown a little shade on her when others were suspecting her very hard.

Early game Rej said this;
AL is town
AL is town with benefit of doubt

I would lynch Imp or Aether this DP
But as DP went on and the count of players that were suspecting Poison increased Rej went ahead and started to make his case on AL. His preparations themselves progressed smoothly for the case AL itself, and all that remained was the menial job of fanning the flames over and over. but it didn't really work out for him when I suddenly turn the table with my push on Toujo and creating the main focus between Poison and Toujo so while RGK was another lynch inside these days Rej kept voted Glover but later knowing he won't get enough people to lynch glover he went ahead and voted the leading wagon; Poison wagon itself.

The reason Rej didn't think of a way to help poison was first, he had no obligation to assist her in such a bothersome situation, and defending her was out of the options; secondly, there were very few options for him to defend poison without getting a shade thrown to him, although out of two-three leading wagons, Rej decides to vote RedGloverKing first, although it didn't last for too long when he saw that poison lynch getting more votes. This was exactly the right moment to vote poison to gain temporary trust and as well as lynching a scum to gain town credits.

In short, Poison was pretty consensus scum read, and if there ever consensus town core D1, most of its members were on it. I'm not sure what Rej could have done to defend poison without throwing himself into the fire so I think he took the best route and accepted the fate of his teammate.

Another post that caught my attention from Rej was this;
So when Michelle voted Toujo and evened out the wagons I went back to poison. Showing how I was always aware of the lynch. I was just stand by all the time so i can redirect the lynch against Poison with my vote.

You realize that I had mainly control of the wagons last DP?
Now tell me again in face I am scum. Tell me I am an exe or mafia that bussed my partner. My beloved Poison chan.
This posts merely hints that Rej was trying to gain credits for Poison lynch, nowhere it has shown, or even look like Rej was actually controlling the wagon... he was merely a part of the wagon. Why would Rej try to take credits for Poison lynch despite knowing he was not even the one that started it and only voted her at a late phase when Poison was bound to get lynched. So there is a contradiction with his posts, there is absolutely no reason for Rej to think he was controlling the wagon outside of getting town cred.

Also, does this vote look like from someone who was controlling the wagon;
VoteLynch RedGloverKing

I dont trust any shenanigans here

Rej early town reads contain not only a list of just player and but unusual reasoning that you really can't understand properly, In other words these posts:
I don't know, usually Michelle seems to create some paranoia in me, but this time I literally give a **** on any negative emotions.
I think she is valuable in the DP until mafia kills her. I hosted here twice and mafia often likes to reevaluate Michelle has night kill target.
Also Michelle is not tunnelish in this game which can imply certain things, like she is putting more thoughts or she is more observative. Nothing bad really pinged me.
Also, the bolded part feels off to me... I don't see why he needed to mention this, also it's pretty convincing that he says Michelle is only useful in the DP until Mafia kills her. Rej had this post laid out and Michelle was dead next phase, both things ping me that Rej had intention when created that post and those intention were to kill Michelle.

Here comes another early phase read I didn't liked from Rej, an attempt of pocketing Imp has done here;
Ngl this is what im going off of.

Then I read somewhere he has like 8 years experience

Don't know much about the others is all
lmao this post sounds super innocent and it is super towny at this point

to add something to your thoughts: most long time player laze off or spare their energies for neccessary plays
and when I saw long time players then I really mean loong time players
I don't get how exactly but this feels very Rej like a post when he's scum... I think Imp wouldn't understand what Rej implied but I think he's happy that Rej was reading him town hence what Rej wanted being achieved

Also, the way Rej speaks and demeanor he put on, it makes him sound very dependent. While it's a very effective way to give someone the illusion that they're reliable. Yet it's risky for you to go on like that, not just in the long term, but in the short term as well, since I do think I'm not the only that has notice these patterns on Rej gameplay.

Here's Rej another weird town read with another silly reason;
Lock Ansa town, he already has novaselinenever paranoia flashbacks
The Luku - Imp interaction on page 45 gives me the impression that Luku is town
This one as well, I am pretty sure no one really bothered with this or even trackback to see what Rej was trying to say... it's perfect reasoning and quite common. Not only people will overlook that but also gonna think there must be something on page 45 that made Rej think he's town hence player decide not really try to look that but here's what we got on page 45

[/QUOTE]
VoteLynch: Imperfection
Lol why, cuz I wont vote you?
If you think that wouldn't have been enough and look genuine read to Rej, then rej'd be way underestimating Luku because just not game ago Luku pulled crazy taints like that there as well and he scum and Rej was the host. So yeah this is another one of Rej weird reads that really hold no ground but trying to look like he's contributing while in reality, I don't think this actually gave anything for anyone to work with. It was just random one-liner reads that people think "Yeah, I think it's fine" and then overlook it.

Whenever trouble arises, Rej wafts in afterward and acts like he caused it all and then reaps the benefit after the fact. Even though he did nothing up that point. It's like when false prophets claim they saw actual events of the past, way before they happened. It's Rej style to get people to believe him when he says that. Matter of fact, if you were to look Rej from very calm and normal point of view, then the things he says aren't ordinarily believable in mafia... the things he does tell you the worst possible thing at the worst possible moment to rattle you and make you vulnerable.

Rej is not upfront player with manipulation akin to other players but rather his habit to bullshit through just about anything or make reasons like these that people think that it cannot be done by Mafia but in reality Rej in these cases actually trying to hide something, most likely his fake font he has been putting to appear town.

Another example of this Rej was treating on me and Kyte read as if he's paranoid but I only see that a reason to avoid an argument or any conflict with us while still suspecting us. this where I feel Rej has been really not putting his act together

Though I have to say If Rehj got on TV calling himself a prophet, he’d be quite a hit, I bet.

TL;DR He's fucking scum and I have not single shred of doubt that he's not... I am rarely wrong about rej but right now I feel more than enough confident to follow that lynch

So if you don't make a case against someone you won't vote them? That's kind of odd.
What I mean is that ideally I want to personally look at them first and not get manipulated.

What good points did I make?
Your iso is quite extensive on him. Q.Q
The fact that he said he wasn.t gonna be around in dp1 eod and yet he came
Then also the way you present it seems that he was throwing some shades on kyte and Just_Red.
Also said he won.t vote poison but end up voting her right?
A lot of them makes sense.
How he seems to not stay true to his own words and such.

Well, he is not a thread to me rn, if he had a lynch redirect he would have kicked me already. Tho I just think that my own tinfoils against AL were farfetched, and PoEwise I would reset AL before I move him in my PoE during the course of the game. All his wishy washy plays this game could be town. Not leaving out on this opportunity. Also his last EoD tone sounded quite unsure.

What are your thoughts about AL? and tell me your thoughts on Ansa, Bee and Hout too if we start it already. GTH short reads are enough.
I have a feeling that least 1 if not couple scum are the lurkers that are comfortable in watchinf how things are going.
Since they aren't posting until called out they aren't coming close to the lynching coz other people have already picked up heat from the previous phases.

Also, I want you guys to look out for XTMF as well, read his argument with Poison again... he went after her way too quick for my liking and I don't think he was reading her scum this early while I don't believe X is mafia but if there is harmful third then it's X
